Chief Medical Officer Healing Breeze's office.
Three hours after incident.
"And then he bit you?" questioned Healing Breeze, a powder blue pegasus and Cloudsdale General's current CMO.
"Yes ma'am, took a pretty good chunk out of me too." Showing the bandaged leg in question. "I can most certainly say I didn't expect it, though I never expected him to outright attack a nurse either for that matter..." Responded Rightful Storm, one of the hospitals leading paediatricians; with over 20 years of experience to his name.
Sighing, he continued. "So...nurse Dawn will be taking the rest of the week off after she's done receiving stitches and I sent Autumn home for the night. She seemed pretty shaken after what happened and I can't blame her... I've just never really seen such aggression before, especially from a colt his age; which I place to be somewhere between eleven and thirteen. The closest thing I've encountered to that nature was a adult griffon and even then he never resorted to such brutal physical violence.... I've also never heard of such injury's as the ones the surgeon described to me. Obviously something's wrong here, do we have no indication of where he came from? Or who he is?"
"Somewhat.. From what little I've gathered from the front desk staff he was brought in by a local off duty royal guard. He didn't stick around for very long but I was told he said something about finding the colt in a alleyway, though of which one he gave no indication. And that he found the colt with those aforementioned wounds"
"And that's all we got?"
"No, he also gave a on duty nurse this" She exclaimed, opening her desks right most drawer and pulling out something distinctly metallic even with its matte black finish.
"....And? What is it?" Storm questioned, moving in for a better look.
"I'm not sure, all he told her was that he found it next to the colt... And that he believed it to be his." she answered, turning the L shaped object around in her hooves. "As you can see it seems to have a small lever but I'm unable to pull it" Showing him as she tried both with a hoofs edge and a wing-tip. "Hmm."
"Anyways..." Shutting it back into her drawer she turned her gaze back to him.
"The immediate question is, what to do about him?" She enquired, resting her head on her hooves.
"Well. I say we wait and see if he still continues to act as violent as he was when he wakes up, or if he will be willing to cooperative with us when he see's that his aggression will get him nowhere. Perhaps have Iridescent perform a psych test on him then work from there...."
The light blue pegasus nodded. "Sounds as good as anything I thought of. In the mean time I'll send the colts description out to social services along with a brief of what we know so far, see if they cant dig up anything on who he is or what happened to him. Though they probably won't be able to find much with that little to go on."
"Alright, see you next shift then. Although my wife's going to have a fuss when she sees my leg..." Rightful muttered as he left Breezes office, headed home for the night with quite a story to tell his wife.
